The simple answer is that you are forgetting to escape "
Really, I think you're getting confused about when you are in the "s and
when you aren't.
The more complicated answer is how to get what you want. I'll give it a
try:
@respon = $placesock->print("./test.pl \"".$param1."\" \"".$param2."\"
\"".$param3."\" \n");
but that is way more complicated than it needs to be, since " will replace
$var with it's value, so you should be able to do:
@respon = $placesock->print("./test.pl \"$param1\" \"$param2\" \"$param3\"
\n");
for me, that's a little hard to read, but others may prefer it. Another
option, if you don't put anything in "s that needs to be replaced would be:
@respon = $placesock->print('./test.pl "'.$param1.'" "'.$param2.'"
"'.$param3.'" '."\n");
All three of these produce the same output as the hardcoded version that you
gave us when given proper values for $params
